Heroes. An awesome show especially the first season. All about seemingly ordinary people learning they have extraordinary abilities. This was the best part about watching the first season. Discovering themselves, as the characters found out what they were capable of. Of course, not all the characters use their special abilities for good, and some are simply misguided. Others however, choose to use their abilities only for personal gain which often means they do harm and evil towards others.

The Second season felt directionless as far as where the show's plot is trying to move. There are a couple of new characters in season two, but all the main established characters from the first season seem to have lost some of their appeal. I guess it's all the extra drama and personal conflict they're going through which the first season mostly lacked.

These shows being Blu-Ray was especially nice. The high def transfer came out looking terrific on my 60" Sony SXRD 1080p Bravia. I still think Blu-Ray needs to become much cheaper, but at least Amazon offers this bundled season pack at a good discount.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great price, Heroes Season 2 Sucks Though, February 19, 2009

Considering you get both Heroes Season 1 AND Season 2 for less than what Season 1 costs alone at places like Best Buy makes this an excellent deal. I admit I'm not a fan of many TV series, my big brother made me watch Season 1 and I was hooked. Sadly Season 2 was terrible...but I'm now hooked into the series..so I continue to watch Heroes all the way to the most current episode in Season 3 pt 2.
